Re: Petrolhead Turbo Video

Thanks! Cool video -- the reviewer seems to like it (smile on his face) but I couldn't understand.

Re: Petrolhead Turbo Video

Thanks!
I think there are links to two other TV reviews as well. The second one features a passenger who looks like he's about to toss lunch!!!!
(edited) Is this second video here a GT2? I'm confused.

It's a real-blooded sports car, but he disliked the interior. He also really liked the performance, but that's about as much anybody with only a knowledge of German will get out of it.

Re: Petrolhead Turbo Video

He basically says it's a fantastic car. You can really feel the 60hp difference with the previous Turbo and acceleration is phenomenal at any speed. He indeed disliked the interior, but mostly because it is grey (so that can be fixed). He concluded that in its price/performance class it is probably the only true daily driver that is both sportscar and capable of a comfortable and relaxed cruise at 100 km/h.

The second video is of the 650 hp Ruf RT12.
